Why Gold?

[Guest itmtrader]

Investors buy and hold gold for many reasons. This diversity of investment interest is one aspect of gold that makes it so attractive. There are six major reasons why investors buy gold.

1. As a hedge against inflation.
   
2. As a protection against currency market fluctuations.
   
3. As a portfolio diversifier.
   
4. As a safe haven in times of economic and financial market instability.
   
5. As a commodity, based on gold's supply and demand fundamentals.
   
6. As a form of savings (especially in developing countries).

Among the myths being constantly circulated by gold bears is that gold (and silver) only perform well in high-inflation environments. As with many of the pronouncements of the gold bears, this is another case of them drawing conclusions based upon their own faulty understanding of markets, history, and precious metals, themselves.

Gold is one of the best investments to protect yourself from the ups and downs of the economy. History bears testimony to the fact that the prices of precious metals like gold and silver have always appreciated over a period of time inspite of economic slow down.

Gold and silver investment is a better investment than real estate investment because this is a liquid asset and you don't feel the money crunch in the hour of need.

Gold has proved that it can withstand the test of time for many years now. When it's all said and done, all you have to do is look at the statistics. Paper currencies have been known to fail which is why smart investors always use gold and other precious metals as a safety net.
